It's too hot... to work

Decree No. 2025-482 of May 27, 2025, relating to the protection of workers against heat-related risks

Before: "The employer provides workers with fresh, potable drinking water."

After: "The employer provides workers with fresh potable drinking water to allow them to quench their thirst and refresh themselves."

In plain language

The employer must take the measures defined in the decree, based on Météo France's alert levels. An "intense heat episode" corresponds to the achievement of Météo France's yellow, orange or red alert levels; a "heatwave period" corresponds only to the orange and red levels.

Order of May 27, 2025 relating to the determination of the heatwave alert thresholds of Météo-France's specific system for signaling the heat hazard level as part of protecting workers against the risks associated with intense heat episodes.

Order of May 22, 2025 classifying the remarkable heritage site of Lude

The quality and value of its heritage, the conservation, restoration, rehabilitation, and enhancement of the ensemble formed by the historic core, the 18th-century suburbs, and the structured extensions of the 19th and 20th centuries of the commune of Le Lude, are of public interest from a historical, architectural, archaeological, artistic, and landscape perspective.

However...

Not everyone is welcome - Monster trucks: "They don't want to hear anything," the mayor of Le Lude is angry after the illegal installation of fairground workers... Colette and her husband observe the temporary camp from the front steps of their house. Residents of Le Lude for over sixty years, they regret the spectacle in the town. "They have to work and earn a living too. Now we see fewer shows, circuses, or that kind of thing."
